Crone Chronicles

Crone Chronicles: A Journal of Conscious Aging, which began with that spontaneous photocopied letter, was in its 11th year of publication in 2001 and had an 80-page quarterly with a full-color cover, as well as a national and international circulation of approximately 15,000.

For the last five or six years of its publication, Crone Chronicles received press attention from at least a dozen big city dailies, including the Chicago Times, the London Sunday Times, the Seattle Times, and the San Diego Union. In 1998, The Toronto Globe & Mail said that Crone Chronicles "is doing for crones what Ms Magazine did for an earlier generation of feminists."

In 1998 Crone Chronicles was nominated for an Utne Reader annual award in the category of "Personal Life Stories." In February 1999, Crone, Croning Ceremonies, and Crone Chronicles were featured on a four-minute segment of Good Morning America.

Crone magazine, launched at Winter Solstice 2008, is the successor to Crone Chronicles: a Journal of Conscious Aging, and subscriptions are available here at the BBI Media webstore.
